Medical Policy and Information
The Catholic Education Office of Canberra and Goulburn (CEOCG) policy on the Medical Welfare of Students is below:
Medical_Information_and_Consent_Form_2023.pdf. This form must be completed by a parent/guardian for each student, if they have a medical condition, and returned to the school by the end of Week 3.
Depending on your child's medical condition, we may require you to complete additional forms which can be found below.
- Medical Form 1 - Request to Dispense Medication During School Hours
This form is to be completed by Parents/Guardians for all medications to be administered during school hours, in addition to Medical Plans if applicable. - Medical Form 2 - Deed of Indemnity
This form is to be completed by Parents/Guardians for the administering/dispensing of Schedule 8 Drugs. - Medical Form 3 - Medical Advice to School
This form is to be completed by the prescribing Doctor if a Medical/Health Plan is not provided.
Some medical conditions require more complex Health Care Plans including those with asthma, Type 1 diabetes, epilepsy, anaphylaxis or other more complex health procedures.
- An individual health care plan must be developed, and approved by a qualified medical practitioner, for any student:
- diagnosed with severe asthma, type 1 diabetes, epilepsy or anaphylaxis
- diagnosed as being at risk of an emergency, or
- who requires ongoing administration of health care procedures.
- Any medication that is provided to the school must have an expiry date of 2024, where possible. We understand that some medications have a short expiry date.
Please note that schools do not dispense analgesic substances for pain relief without prior approval from the parent or guardian. Aspirin, or medications containing Aspirin, can only be administered with written authorisation by the student's doctor. Schedule 8 drugs include Codeine, Concerta and Ritalin.
